Anyone good at creating car show placards or maybe a photo of one that I can have transposed by the sign shop?

I have a car show on the 30th and need a nice flashy placard to put next to the car and replace my old one.


Kinda wanted like a mod listing on one side and progress time line with photos on the other, maybe with a photo image in the background of them both.

Any Ideas are welcome and if you want a few pics to play around with shoot me your e-mail addy.

i normally have my sis do mine, she is a graphic artist for margarita ville. she probably wont be free but i can get you her info. Really i would just mess with photoshop and see how it turns out. then bring the cd to kinkos and have them print it out

James, if you have something in mind I can put something together for you.

$70 for design, print and mount is good.

what do you use to stick to the foam core. my one from HIN is bubbling and peeling from the foam after sitting in the slightly hot car at hin

Its hard to say w/o looking at it in person, but sounds like inferior materials were used.

I print on high quality vinyl using a wide format solvent inkjet printer.
then the vinyl is mounted on sign quality board using a laminator.

For these types of signs we like to use matte vinyl so there is no glare for the viewers.

we used high gloss and it may just not have adheared well. the photo itself is unharmed it is just coming off of the foam board

You guys have some examples? I know you did good work Chris on the pics I will be using Also a few of the shows I go to are outdoor events, so are they good enough to withstand the rain and possable breeze? Pricing looks fair.
